What is a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover isn’t just a single procedure; it’s a combination of cosmetic enhancements tailored to your post-pregnancy body needs. It aims to restore your pre-pregnancy shape and tackle the physical changes mothers often face, from sagging breasts to stretched abdominal skin.
Tailored Procedures to Rejuvenate Every Mom for Mother’s Day
Each Mommy Makeover at Greenberg Cosmetic Surgery is highly customized. Dr. Stephen T. Greenberg, a renowned cosmetic surgeon, will guide you through choosing the procedures that best suit your needs and cosmetic goals. Here’s what you might consider:
- Breast Augmentation and Lift: Restore volume and correct the sagging that often occurs after breastfeeding. Options include implants or fat transfer for a natural look and feel.
- Tummy Tuck: Tighten and reshape the abdominal area, addressing excess skin and stretch marks, while also repairing diastasis recti (separated abdominal muscles).
- Liposuction: Sculpt your body by removing stubborn fat deposits in targeted areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms.
- Vaginal Rejuvenation: EmpowerRF and other techniques can enhance comfort and sexual satisfaction by addressing issues like vaginal looseness and incontinence.
- Body Contouring: This includes additional procedures like thigh and arm lifts to tone and reshape areas affected by weight gain and genetics.
Detailed Procedures in the Mommy Makeover at Greenberg Cosmetic Surgery
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is designed to enhance the size and shape of your breasts to achieve the appearance you desire. This procedure can involve the use of silicone, saline, or gummy bear implants (highly cohesive silicone), which are biocompatible and safe. Implants are inserted using various techniques, such as a periareolar incision (around the nipple-areola complex), an inframammary incision in the breast fold, or a transaxillary incision near the armpit. This allows for great customization in terms of shape, size, material, texture, profile projection, and placement within the breast tissue.
Breast Lift
A breast lift addresses sagging and descending breast skin, which can occur due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or the natural aging process. Depending on the degree of sagging, the surgical approach may vary. Mild cases might require a small incision that encircles the areola, while more severe cases may necessitate an additional vertical incision (“lollipop” incision) or an anchor incision for substantial changes. This procedure can be combined with implants to achieve both volume and a youthful contour.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is critical for correcting stretched skin and diastasis recti (separation of the abdominal muscles) that often result from pregnancy. The procedure involves a lower abdominal incision just above the pubic area, through which excess fat is removed, stretched skin excised, and muscles tightened with permanent sutures. For more comprehensive modifications, an incision around the navel may be required to maintain its natural position.
Liposuction
Liposuction targets and removes fat from specific areas of the body, improving contour and shape. This procedure is performed through one or more small incisions, using a cannula to suction out fat. It’s particularly effective for areas resistant to diet and exercise, such as the abdomen, thighs, and arms. Liposuction can also be used in conjunction with fat transfer procedures like the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), where fat removed from one area is reinjected to enhance another area, such as the buttocks.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
Vaginal rejuvenation addresses changes such as decreased elasticity and dryness, which can affect comfort and sexual satisfaction. Techniques like the EmpowerRF system use radiofrequency energy, electrical muscle stimulation, and microneedling to strengthen the pelvic floor, resurface the vaginal lining, and restore elasticity. These treatments are designed to be minimally invasive and can significantly improve feelings of vaginal tightness and overall sexual well-being.
Body Contouring
Body contouring includes procedures like thigh lifts and arm lifts, which remove excess fat and skin from specific areas. This is ideal for treating parts of the body that naturally accumulate fat deposits through genetics or post-pregnancy weight changes, helping to achieve a more toned and defined appearance.

When to Consider a Mommy Makeover
The right time for a Mommy Makeover is personal and depends on several factors. Generally, it’s advised to wait at least six months after giving birth, particularly if you’ve been breastfeeding. During your consultation, Dr. Greenberg will assess your health and discuss the best timing for your procedures to ensure the safest, most effective results.
